Max Element Releases New Mixtape

Up and coming deejay Max Element has released his mix tape titled Elementary. The 36 track disc was produced by Xray Records and mixed by Garrison Ink.

In a release to the media, Element explained his reasons for releasing the mix tape. ‘The mix tape is basically to give people a chance to know who I am as an artiste. It also showcases what I have to offer in terms of songwriting and vocal delivery’, Element explained.

The response to the mix tape has been overwhelming to date. More than 5,000 copies have so far been distributed across the island.

Six of the tracks on the mix tape are skits. Said Element, ‘There is a skit called Baby Zion which is basically me portraying the character of a young boy who tries to impersonate Max Element. The reviews have been excellent so far and people hearing the mix tape realize that I am more of a deejay than a singjay. One of the tracks that the streets has been loving is Mongrel Dawg, so that could be the next single that we promote’.

Max Element’s recent single Heartbreaker has been enjoying rotation on FM radio and strong video play on Suzie Q’s Video Alley top Ten, RETV, HYPE TV, Negril TV,Swag TV, MD TV and CVM TV. The video recently peaked at number two on the CVM TV Hit List video countdown.

On YouTube, Heartbreaker has so far attracted more than 10,000 views in less than a month of its release. Born Clement Smith, Max Element is originally from the Zion area of Hannah Town in West Kingston.

Element has been working with producers including Kehlando Williams of Xray Records (who is also his manager), Steve Rowe of Garrison Inc, and producer ICON. Among his latest recordings are Mongrel Dawg and Wash, Cook and Clean.
